Mac One
Also known as: MAC 1, Miracle Alien Cookies One
Mac One Strain Overview
Mac One, also known as MAC 1 or Miracle Alien Cookies One, is a highly regarded hybrid cannabis strain developed by breeder Capulator. The strain is a stabilized phenotype of the original Miracle Alien Cookies (MAC), which itself is a cross between Alien Cookies and a hybrid of Colombian and Starfighter genetics. Mac One emerged as a particularly desirable phenotype from the MAC line, distinguished by its consistent quality, potent effects, and distinctive appearance. The strain gained popularity in the medical and recreational cannabis communities for its balanced effects and complex terpene profile.
Visually, Mac One is characterized by dense, resinous buds that are typically light green to pale yellow in color, often with vibrant orange pistils and a heavy coating of milky-white trichomes. The buds are compact and structured, with a frosty appearance that indicates high cannabinoid content. The strain's aroma is complex, combining sweet, citrus, and earthy notes with hints of spice and fuel. When properly cured, Mac One produces a smooth smoke or vapor with a flavor profile that mirrors its aroma, often leaving a pleasant aftertaste.
Mac One is known for its relatively consistent growth patterns and effects, making it a favorite among both cultivators and consumers. The strain has received numerous awards and recognition in cannabis competitions, cementing its reputation as a premium cultivar. While primarily available through clones rather than seeds due to its specific phenotype, Mac One has become a staple in many dispensaries and is often used in breeding projects to introduce its desirable traits to other strains.

Mac One Strain Growing Information
Mac One is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to achieve optimal results. The plant has a flowering time of approximately 8-10 weeks when grown indoors. It prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also be grown outdoors in warm, Mediterranean-like climates with consistent temperatures. Indoor yields typically range from 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant. The plant tends to stay relatively compact, reaching heights of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining stable temperature and humidity levels, as the dense buds are susceptible to mold and mildew if conditions are too humid. Regular pruning and training techniques like topping or low-stress training can help improve light penetration and air circulation. The strain responds well to organic nutrients and requires careful attention during the flowering stage to support its heavy bud development.
